Why It Matters
The dispute concerns the appointment of judges in the Constitutional Tribunal and the powers of the President of the Constitutional Tribunal to admit judges to adjudicate.
The judges took an alternative oath to be able to rule. The president obstructs. The biographies of people recently elected to the Constitutional Tribunal guarantee the proper operation of the Tribunal. I hope that the Constitutional Tribunal will start operating normally - said Adam Bodnar, senator of the Civic Coalition, in an afternoon interview on RMF FM.
The former Minister of Justice also commented on the president of the Constitutional Tribunal, Bogdan Święczkowski, who on Wednesday prevented Maciej Berek, elected by the Sejm as a judge of the Constitutional Tribunal, from adjudicating. "Święczkowski is Zbigniew Ziobro's trusted person," he said.
Open Questions
- When will the Constitutional Tribunal begin to function normally?
- What will be the next steps regarding the admission of Maciej Berek to adjudicate?
